Got Milk?

[DozingAnt]

I align with Lilac’s strategy, whole milk in the house for coffee, gelatin froths and 1% for regular drinking.  Since we don’t have raw (I dream someday we will!) I also use Cari’s suggestions for other dairy products with low lactic acid to help with adequate protein and nutrients.

Here is my new favorite way to have my milk. Ray Peat suggested to put sugar in milk and I get why. Whenever I drink milk I get hungry not to long after. Putting an egg yolk, maple syrup and gelatin in my milk now really keeps me satisfied for a long time and it has 16 grams of protein in this! Sometimes I will add an organic instant coffee to it in the morning to satisfy Ray Peat’s recommendation of having protein with coffee or having it after a meal.

That egg nog looks delicious. I was making a cold egg nog in a frozen blender–milk, egg yolk, maple syrup, salt, vanilla. It was good. (It’s also good without the egg.) But I did notice a pattern of feeling hungry *minutes* after drinking it. You’d think it would be filling. I also don’t think the cold temperature was agreeable for me; I would often feel slightly queasy, too. Whereas hot chocolate (similar ingredients) did not produce this effect.

Thank you Lilac! I am addicted to them!

This additive to milk is being discussed on X–U.S., UK, and other countries. Here’s a representative post.
